LTC Set to Offer Welding Classes for the Public

(Robinson) — Those wanting to learn how to weld, brush up on their welding skills, and create art from metal will have an opportunity to do just that through Lincoln Trail College this summer. LTC is offering a pair of community education classes for people to experience welding. “Welding 101” offers an introduction to the basics of welding. “Decorative Welding” helps people learn welding basics while creating a decorative piece. Both classes will be led by Jackson Hemrich at the McCoy Welding Center. Each class is a part of Lincoln Trail College’s Community Education program which provides a variety of non-credit classes for the community. The cost of “Welding 101” is $25 while the cost of “Decorative Welding” is $45. Students can register by calling 618-544-8657. The registration deadline for both classes is Thursday.
